Information About Victoria - Putney teacher

Personal Description:

I am a young, female professional offering fun, friendly piano lessons to beginners aged between 6 - 18. I am currently based in Putney, South West London and offer lessons from my home.

I completed my Trinity Guildhall Grade 8 in 2009 in Belfast before moving across to London for University.

Tutoring Experience:

I have over two years of teaching experience entering pupils into Trinity College London examinations. My students have been very successful in their exams, always getting a minimum of a merit.

Aside from piano, I also have experience teaching Squash at a local sports club for a number of years so have a good overall level of experience with children of varying ages.

Tutoring Approach:

My main goal as a tutor is to ensure that my pupils enjoy their lessons whilst still improving their skills and reaching their full potential.

I follow the Trinity College London syllabus from 'Initial' upwards for this reason as it covers all aspects of piano skills - from sight reading, aural and technical work whilst progressing at a level that isn't too daunting to the pupil. I also offer theory alongside the practical side as this really helps the pupil understand the music.

I believe that piano is a great instrument to help pupils improve their concentration and perseverance skills.
